Proper noun

the European miracle

  1. (historical, economics) The rise of Europe to geopolitical dominance during the modern period.

(Hans Albert, Between social science, religion and politics: essays in critical rationalism, 1999, p. 205, citing K. F. Werner in Baechler/Hall/Mann (eds.), 1988, p. 172.)
